#eustace is not anything amazing lol im not saying that but ykwm

okay um… ik it has been a while since i said i would introduce Him but im doing it rn ok.

this is eustace! we’ve had him for about a week & a half now & hes doing very well! winni loves him, cletus thinks hes pretty alright most of the time & beau… tolerates him. adding him has gone very smoothly thanks to the two weeks he was with us in november/december.

for anyone that wasn’t following along… my friend purchased him from a pet store in june, kept him in his crate 23 hours a day, & never worked with him. because of this he would pee in the house/crate & wasy very hyperactive. the only human contact he got was them “correcting” him; he never got any love.

in november i asked to take him to do a “board & train” type thing as she had texted me saying eustace had chewed through his crate & was chewing the carpet & her bf threatened to shoot him. afterward he was better, but they didn’t continue doing (the very basic) things i did with him at my house, so he regressed. he started biting “for no reason”.

end of december she told me she was getting rid of him & asked us to take him. we eventually agreed. when i was talking to her about everything before we took him she told me she “fucking hated him” & whenever she talked about how she tried to make it work, she would always say that she had spent $3000 on him. basically only talking about how it affected her, & not anything about the feelings of the dog.

anyways. we have him now & hes getting more love than he knew was possible. there is literally nothing wrong with him except that he is a puppy. he literally just needs basic training. he is behind for his age but that is all her fault lol. his main problem is that he has no idea how to relax outside of his crate, but he is getting better. he is extremely sweet & when he stays in one place long enough he is quite the cuddle bug. you would never think he had ever bit anyone, much less hard enough to gush blood.

#dog posting #also he is 11 months. expect a birthday post next month lol #the whole pet store thing she also lied to me about because she knew i would be mad at her for it #looked up his breeder it it is literally a puppy mill. with like over 200 dogs #i put biting for no reason in quotations because while they werent doing anything to him when he bit them the times she told he did painted #a picture for me. the gushing blood one was when the bf reached into his crate to turn up his shock collar so. #ik that probably the only other times the bf has reached close to him for anything has been to beat him. hes probably grabbed him by the #collar & shook him before. so combine previous abuse with absolutely no niceness & you get a dog that bites ‘for no reason’ #yea didnt even mention the shock collars. they bought shovk collars because their dogs would whine/bark in their crates. no idea why. not #like theyre trapped in there almost 24/7 #okay im done for right now #this is longer that i thought it would be lol #okay wait one more thing. so they named him smokey right. when we said we were gonna change her name she mentioned how at the pet store his #bame was solar. talk about a downgrade lmao #eustace is not anything amazing lol im not saying that but ykwm
